Security Audit at Dublin Airport

A recent EU audit of security processes at Dublin Airport identified a small number of issues requiring remediation to the auditors’ satisfaction. Such audits are carried out on a regular basis at all EU airports.

One of these issues remains outstanding and could take approximately two months to address due to the technical nature of the matters involved.

This outstanding matter does not relate to the screening of passengers or their luggage at Dublin Airport and will not affect passenger security screening at the airport. Passengers transferring through other European airports may be required to undergo further security screening.

DAA is working closely with the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport to jointly resolve the outstanding issue at Dublin Airport. Cork and Shannon airports are not affected.
